Medical Xpress / Case of mistaken patterns: Slow brain development linked to ADHD for years might just be sex differences
Figuring out the causes of why children develop attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been on scientists' radar for a few decades now. A common notion that has been around for nearly 20 years is that ADHD is ...
Tech Xplore / Sodium-ion batteries could become a low-cost rival to Tesla's batteries
A popular sodium-ion battery designed by the company Hina and used in cars and large-scale energy storage systems in China matches performance parameters and production quality of Tesla's lithium-ion batteries, finds new ...
Phys.org / Axial encoding unlocks up to eightfold faster 3D microscopy with less light
A research team from HKU Engineering has pioneered a fundamentally new imaging strategy known as AIMED (Arbitrary illumination microscopy with encoded depth), which utilizes a sub-sampling approach. By integrating innovations ...
Medical Xpress / Lab-grown brain-spinal cord model shows 'irreversible' nerve damage may be reversed
Cambridge scientists have grown miniature circuits in the lab that mimic how the brain and spinal cord connect, which underlies human movement. They used this model to show how damage to these connections previously considered ...
Medical Xpress / From dish to brain: Researchers chart human glial cell maturation
A new study published in Nature Communications shows that human glial progenitor cells are a promising and safe cell product for transplantation. The research also defines the transcriptional and epigenetic signatures of ...
Science X / Could one prenatal vitamin reshape how your child remembers words, patterns and places?
Prenatal supplements nourish both mother and baby, helping fill vitamin and mineral deficiencies in the mother while supporting a healthy pregnancy and strong fetal development throughout every stage of pregnancy. Scientists ...
Phys.org / Why the most massive galaxies in the early universe stopped forming stars prematurely
Astronomical observations show that the most massive galaxies in the early universe formed approximately three to four billion years after the Big Bang and stopped producing stars very early in cosmic history, around one ...
Phys.org / A 'Balrog' in the tunnels: Scientists discover a new cave cricket species on the tiny island of Kastellorizo, Greece
Despite the intensity of modern exploration, the eastern Mediterranean continues to yield unexpected discoveries. On the small Greek island of Kastellorizo, researchers have documented a previously unknown cave cricket thriving ...
Medical Xpress / Calling Doctor GPT: AI responses to health care queries are nearly 76% accurate
Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered chatbots respond to everyday health-related questions from general users with nearly 76% accuracy, which raises concerns about their trustworthiness in real-world client-facing applications, ...
Tech Xplore / Everlasting copper becomes a reality with novel reactive printing ink
A new invention from a team that includes a University of Maryland researcher halts the copper degradation cycle that turns statues, roofs, and even nickels green. Researchers have developed a liquid reactive ink that can ...
Phys.org / How bacteria survive with almost no oxygen— and why blocking one enzyme could aid new antibiotics
Researchers in Leiden have, for the first time, observed how a specialized enzyme helps bacteria stay alive when oxygen levels are low, and how that process can be blocked. The study, published in Science Advances, opens ...
Phys.org / Ultrafast holographic imaging reveals electron and magnetic dynamics inside next-generation materials
An extremely fast microscopy method to research the interaction of light and matter makes it possible to study optical processes on very short timescales. To this end, a German–Italian research team is combining holographic ...
